  • I signed up for the payday loan last night, and as yet, theres nowt in my bank account and nowt showing up on my quidco either.... should I be worried? I got the email saying that the loan has been accepted but the funds haven't appeared yet, is this normal? How long have other people waited to get the funds and the credit on your quidco page?

    Hello
    I joined Quidco last night and bought £60 worth of Tesco shopping Via the link on the site.

    Im just really after basic help. How long until i recieve the money, are their any free sign ups in Quidco?

    Also i understand that its a cash back site, but is their anything a need to be careful of?

    Any help or advice would be great.

    Thanks

    Hi there, it really does depend on which offer you are getting. Some will take 24hrs to be tracked and then a couple fo months before you get the cashback. I would just like to recommend taking out a Payday loan via the website, heres what I did: Logged onto Quidco and found the link for Payday loan offering £60.00 cashback. I clicked on there and applied for a loan of £80 which I have to pay back in a months time + £20 in interest. That £80.00 is sat in my account now - it was all done in 24hrs and I'm not going to spend that money. My £60.00 cash back showed up on my Quidco account about 24hrs after applying for the loan. So by taking out this loan via the website I am now £40 up! :D Good luck

    Oh and there are tons of offers like: doing quotes on confused.com and moneysupermarket which will earn you £1-£2 per quote and you can do up2 5. Also there are offers where you sign up to free sim cards and other offers where you are asked to sign up to receiving newsletters.

    Do you have to be a new customer to the merchants listed to get the money?

  • I'm also contemplating joining up with Quidco, but have a couple of questions.
    They charge a £5 admin fee out of your earinngs. What if I only raised about £1 cashback on my account then got bored and never used them again. Would I still owe them £4 that they would chase me for?

    And generally how are they compared to other cashback sites? For instance both Quidco and Topcashback offer 4% cashback on Play.com, so who are you more likely to get your money off?

    Thanks in advance :)

    No you dont end up owing them money if you dont raise it, they only take £5 per year so for example: I current have earned £68.81 so far in about a week so they will take £5, and pay me £63.81. And then they wont take another £5 until the next year, so you could earn £100's and not get charged again until the year is up. I am not a member of topcashback but all i can say is - theres no harm in joining both

  • Do you know if you need to have the same e-mail address for both your Quidco account and the merchant site you are using?
    E.g, if we used my Quidco account to then buy off my fiancee's Debenham's account would the cashback be tracked, or do we need to change all our merchant accounts to the same e-mail address?
